Northumberland Wedding

Hi we viewed this venue it was gorgeous but unfortunatley just a bit too far out for us

We have booked le petit chateau the new one by the apartment group who own newton hall, it hasnt finished being built yet but the draw ups were amazing and totally fell in love, so may be completley stupid or a bit crazy to book a venue we havent physically stepped foot in but there you go lol. We get married in May 2018

We are also booking paul as our photographer, as soon as we seen his work we fell in love so didnt bother shopping arpund for any other photographers.

Are you hiring the tractor and trailer for pics? I loved that idea

I'm not familiar with the suppliers in your area, but I am having a very similar weekend wedding in a rural area. We too were looking for a more wild look and were able to find several flower farms in the area where you could use freshly picked flowers to make arrangements for your wedding. Some allowed you to DIY the arrangements while others provided that service. You might want to google to see if there are similar farms in your area.

That venue sounds amazing! I love Newton Hall and can imagine it will be beautiful when complete!

Yeah we are thinking about doing that just to make the most of it really! Pauls work is amazing so really pleased we have booked him.

Have you started looking at anything else to book? Im at a wedding in northumberland in october so will be keeping my eyes peeled for any good suppliers.

The flower farm sounds a fab idea! Thanks for your help!

Yeah fingers crossed it is or we are screwed hahaha.

No havent organised anything yet although I am trying I just cant decide firmly on anything... I'm very fussy and very indecisive which isnt a good mix lol. I fell in love with some bridesmaid dresses but dont want to commit to them as i havent looked about for anything else, but then again they are sold out everywhere and can only find them on ebay so not sure whether to just get them and hope for the best!

Going to try on my first dress on saturday and I'm nervous as I havent seen anything else that I like so hoping its as beautiful on as it is in pictures.

Have you done anything else yet? What sort of theme are you going for?

I am the same! I love something one minute then change my mind ha! My friend has just bought bridesmaid dresses from ebay. They are lovely and a great price!

We are just going for a relaxed theme, very country with lots of flowers and fun fames (hopefully!!).

What are you planning for your theme?

Well since we last spoke we have completley changed the venue! We lost our deposit too but I think we just rushed into it and originally wanted a barn wedding so are in the process of booking a barn in County Durham. We are going for rustic vintage theme... probably similar to yours. Luckily we will get venue and table decor in with the price so that saves us a bit of money which is always helpful. I've already bought some vintage items on ebay that I want to upcycle for the wedding so hopefully they turn out ok! You got anything else sorted yet?
